Growing up in Moscow, Russia and moving to Los Angeles at a young age, dy/dx has been influenced by many different musical cultures from Russian pop to gangster rap and screamo punk rock. This melting pot of influences has resulted in his soulful style and futuristic sound. dy/dx’s passion, emotion, and intensity is engraved within his sound and built on rhythms influenced by hip-hop and his Russian-Armenian musical background. Translating this to electronic music birthed a fusion of styles that range from future bass, hip-hop, RnB, neo soul, trap, and house.
After having released several remixes on Soundcloud, dy/dx joined the ICON Collective music production school in June of 2017, sacrificing his graduate program in mechanical engineering. He honed in on developing his production skills without letting anybody in his engineering firm find out what he was really up to. Using his engineering career as a way to finance his passion for music, he was able to work on releasing his first EP. In joint efforts with his girlfriend Kees, he is also planning a release of a joint Urban Pop EP in the winter of 2021. dy/dx’s goal is to make the listener feel and enjoy the story each song expresses.
